Former NSA engineer and White House cybersecurity leader Tim Van Name joins Andy Sauer to discuss the future of cyber conflict, AI-enabled warfare, and the growing tension between innovation and bureaucracy. Tim shares lessons from responding to cyber compromises inside the White House, explains why “time” is becoming the most contested domain in modern conflict, and argues that America’s long-term advantage depends on collaboration, ethical leadership, and rethinking how cybersecurity responsibility is shared between governments, companies, and consumers.
